England vs. Netherlands Preview

Hosts England open the ICC World Twenty20 against outsiders Netherlands at Lord’s in a match they dare not lose and the Dutch hope they might win.

In pace bowler Dirk Nannes, who plays at Lord’s for Middlesex, the Dutch have a left-arm quick who can swing the ball late.

Australia-born Nannes didn’t hit top form during the Netherlands’s recent warm-up games against Ireland and Scotland but if the seamer, who also plays for Indian Premier League side the Delhi Daredevils, is at his best then England need to watch out.

All-rounder Ryan ten Doeschate is another key figure for the Dutch and this match could see him in action against at least two of his Essex team-mates in opening batsman Ravi Bopara and wicket-keeper James Foster, with the big-hitting Graham Napier also in England’s squad.

England have never won a major one-day tournament and, despite pioneering cricket’s shortest format at county level, are not among the favourites now.

They struggled to get past Scotland in a warm-up match before overwhelming the West Indies, a side they’ve beaten comfortably in Tests and one-dayers this season, in another practice match on Wednesday.

England head into this tournament without star all-rounder Andrew Flintoff (knee injury) but key batsman Kevin Pietersen looks to be recovering from an Achilles problem.

With the Ashes still to come this season, there is a suspicion that England’s sights remain fixed on Tests with regular captain Andrew Strauss stepping down temporarily because of a lack of Twenty20 form.

But all-rounder Paul Collingwood believes low expectations for England, who at the inaugural World Twenty20 in South Africa two years ago only managed a win over Zimbabwe, could work in the hosts’ favour.

Teams:

England (From): Ravinder Bopara, Luke Wright, Owais Shah, Kevin Pietersen, Paul Collingwood(c), Eoin Morgan, James Foster(w), Stuart Broad, Graeme Swann, Ryan Sidebottom, James Anderson, Robert Key, Dimitri Mascarenhas, Graham Napier, Adil Rashid

Darron Reekers, Alexei Kervezee, Bas Zuiderent, Ryan ten Doeschate, Jeroen Smits(w/c), Daan van Bunge, Tom de Grooth, Mudassar Bukhari, Dirk Nannes, Edgar Schiferli, Pieter Seelaar, Peter Borren, Maurits Jonkman, Eric Szwarczynski, Ruud Nijma
